Showerthought: I finally gave in and tested a wireless glass break sensor

For years, I was convinced a hardwired sensor was the only way to go for glass break detection, thinking wireless was just a gimmick. Last month, a client in a historic home in Savannah insisted on no new wiring, so I installed a Honeywell 5853. I monitored it for two weeks straight, and it caught every single test break without a single false alarm. Has anyone else run a long term test on these and found them reliable?

My buddy had the same stubborn idea about wireless sensors lol. He tested one in his garage for like six months and it never missed a beat, even with all the random noise out there. Totally changed his mind.

Technology's come a long way in filtering out interference. My buddy's garage test proves they can handle real world mess now. It's worth giving them a shot before writing them off.
